Just a couple of things for the day.

I found when I got home that my legs were a little rubbery so I will definitely need to walk around and go up and down stairs to get them back to where they ought to be.

I guess that my hair has stopped growing all together because after shaving yesterday, I find that my face is still baby butt smooth tonight. So I guess that I won't need to shave for a while - so there is some benefit to all this chemo!!! Even my wife says I'm baby butt smooth!!!!!

Lastly, we had a visting critical care nurse stop by this afternoon to bring us supplies and to be informed as to when I needed to have the dressing changed on my catheter. The catheter still remains because it will still be needed when I go back to the hospital. But, the interesting part of the visit was that she said that she had been doing this for 20 years and had never seen anyone in the great shape that I am in. Of course, I was holding a glass of wine in my hand when she arrived so that might have further added to the image.

Tomorrow, I call the doctor to see what's next. I'll fill you in when I get the details.

Now gotta go back to the Patriots game!

Hi Bob,
I am so very happy to see that things are progressing so well. You are certainly missed here. It is great that you are home and able to get back to some level of comfort. Also, the whole thing about the hair....it's overrated.

Take Care,
Blake

Blake,

That's easy for you to say - you don't have any! If this hair loss thing keeps up, I'll possess one of the major requirements for being a member of the mechanical team! All I'll need after that is a micrometer!
